Grammar Development in GF
نویسندگان
چکیده
GF is a grammar formalism that has a powerful type system and module system, permitting a high level of abstraction and division of labour in grammar writing. GF is suited both for expert linguists, who appreciate its capacity of generalizations and conciseness, and for beginners, who benefit from its static type checker and, in particular, the GF Resource Grammar Library, which currently covers 12 languages. GF has a notion of multilingual grammars, enabling code sharing, linguistic generalizations, rapid development of translation systems, and painless porting of applications to new languages.

Rapid Development of Dialogue Systems by Grammar Compilation∗
We propose a method for rapid development of dialogue systems where a Grammatical Framework (GF) grammar is compiled into a complete VoiceXML application. This makes dialogue systems easy to develop, maintain, localize, and port to other platforms, and can improve the linguistic quality of generated system output. We have developed compilers which produce VoiceXML dialogue managers and ECMAScri...

متن کاملThesis for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Formal and Informal Software Specifications
The topic of this thesis is to bridge the gap between formal and informal software specifications. Formal specifications are required for the use of formal methods to verify the correctness of software. If we expect formal methods to be used in realistic software development projects, we need to enable people with varying levels of familiarity with formal specification languages to understand, ...
متن کاملBuilding and Using a Russian Resource Grammar in GF
Grammatical Framework (GF) [5] is a grammar formalism for describing formal and natural languages. An application grammar in GF is usually written for a restricted language domain, e.g. to map a formal language to a natural language. A resource grammar, on the other hand, aims at a complete description of a natural languages. The language-independent grammar API (Application Programmer’s Interf...
